#18 Tennessee Vols vs. South Carolina Gamecocks

Knoxville, TN – Coming off its worst loss of the season, No. 18 Tennessee will look to bounce back on Tuesday night at Thompson-Boling Arena in a matchup with the South Carolina Gamecocks. The game tips at 8:00pm CT and will be televised live on ESPNU and streamed online via WatchESPN.

The Vols (18-6, 8-4 SEC) were on the losing end for just the second time in over a month on Saturday, falling on the road at Alabama, 78-50. UT shot a season-low 28 percent (16-of-58) from the floor and made only one basket in the final 10 minutes of play. Tuesday night offers a chance to bounce back as the Vols prepare to close out strong during the final stretch of the regular season. In the first meeting with South Carolina, UT came out on top in Columbia, 70-63, behind Lamonté Turner’s 25 points off the bench.

Omaha, Neb – The day after a game is always better following a win. Just hours after opening their College World Series stay with a 5-3 win over Louisville, the Commodores awoke at the DoubleTree downtown Omaha Sunday with a little more energy in their step.

By taking care of business against Louisville, the Commodores advanced to the winner’s bracket where they will face UC Irvine at 7:00pm Monday. The moment, the stage or the crowd didn’t seem to faze the Commodores, who played a near mistake-free game against the Cardinals. “Most difficult game in this tournament. Most difficult game,” Tim Corbin told his team after the game.
